Date fuzzy, all welcome. Takes place some time after the Shiroshika visit, probably toward the end of November or middle of December
The visit to Shiroshika had annoyed her, but she had expected that. For a while, she had actually taken to not bothering them at all. She stayed away from the mountain and its surrounding areas in favour of exploring the rest of the Tundra. Though she hadn't bothered to move westward very much, she found a strange contentment in returning as often as possible to her Everfrost. And, to her, it was her Everfrost in part.
She had largely stopped guarding the borders of it, but had taken to marking the north-most boundary often to tell those of Hrafnsvaktin and Shiroshika that this was, in fact, her and Kuhn's forest. Perhaps his affections had relaxed her natural inclination to guard it fiercely, or maybe it was that he was its Lord first and foremost.
Dragging a juvenile musk deer, Valmúa sneered at the thought of @Tiberius, recalling his intentional ambivalence and aggressively putting more pressure than necessary on the dead animal's neck. He and @Kuhn had seemed to know one another quite well. For whatever reason, this had pissed her off and she had been having frequent mood swings toward him. Some days, she was absent, of course on hunts or scouting. Others, she was quite affectionate and loving toward him, exuding an energy of intimate adoration. Yet at seemingly random times, she would be distant or even annoyed.
Her brothers @Stjörnuáti and @Solpallur had not come to see her despite knowing that she had left. This made her... was it sadness?
Pulling the felled young deer to a cache close to their shared sleeping area, Valmúa dropped the animal and chewed until she pried a meaty bone from it. Knowing by scent that Kuhn was probably close, she sat beneath a spruce tree and began gnawing at it.
